Large Bumps on Toes

Posted , 3 users are following.

Anyone have any idea what these bumps on my toes can be. started popping up a couple years ago. been to family doctor and foot doctor and they want me to have a Dermatologist take a look.

They dont really hurt and the top layer of the bumps can be torn off but grows back.

    Could be a type of cyst that forms over the joints. Are they on both feet or just one?

    I think your shoes are too tight and it's causing pressure on these spots. Try wearing a size larger than what you normally wear. My right foot is half a size bigger than my left but I wear the left size for both. I've noticed that after working out, I get similar bumps on my right foot but not my left.

    Its possible that David is correct in saying your shoes are too tight and may be contributing to the problem. Do you rely on one pair of shoes? Can you try walking in sandals or even better, bare feet as much as possible.

    However if your doctor has looked at the bumps I'm sure he/she would have spotted callouses and corns from too tight shoes.
